: Mustang Sally’s death is brutal and senseless, serving as a reminder that the mob's internal "justice" system is essentially a meat grinder. Critical Reception
The subplot involving Officer Leon Wilmore offers a scathing critique of Tony's character. After Wilmore gives Tony a speeding ticket and refuses to be intimidated, Tony uses his political connections to have the officer stripped of his overtime and reassigned to a dead-end post.
: Tony’s subsequent attempt to "help" the officer by getting him his job back—only after seeing Wilmore working at a garden center—is a chilling display of his need for control.
The heart of the episode is the return of Bobby Baccalieri Sr. (played by Burt Young). Despite his terminal lung cancer, "The Terminator" is called out of retirement to perform one last hit on Mustang Sally.
